Default Pics of my ride after the wreck

so i wrecked tuesday morning at the start of my 20th birthday. I just took pictures and wondered what you guys thought i should do. I would like to fix it myself and i am trying to compile a parts list for the junkyard or whatever source i should go.

Where should i get parts and what parts should i get?

right now i know i need

Radiator Support
Headlight
Front Bumper
Hood
Headlight supports
*maybe* new radiator

You should try http://WWW.NATIONALAUTOPART.COM they sell all factory parts brand new for very cheap and with very cheap shipping and very fast shipping. I had to buy a headlight, blinker, and fender and they all arrived within a week!

Good luck to you, hopefully it will improve.

I would take the hood, and front bumper off to see how bad the damage is.

P.S. No radiator leaks? Make sure to check the AC if the car runs for any leaks too.

i would go to a junkyard for the radiator support. they are expensive to ship. but that might mean drilling out the radiator support twice. and if you dont weld it, then you can put some sheet metal screws in. but welding it would be safer.

everything else you can get at a place like parts train if your local junkyard does not have it.

good luck and dont hit your finger like i did. haha.

Definately rebuidlable, but ur lookin at a bit, about OEM (I don't have actual prices) ur looking at about 100 bucks for each headlight assembly, both rad supports (I'm not sure what that is, but it shouldn't be that much), looking at like 300-400 for the bumper, the rad looks fine, the hood looks pretty fucked though, ur probably looking at a good 400 for that too. :-\ Sorry this had to happen, especially on ur birthday, man

EDIT:
It looks like the engine is pushed in because the camera is in direct proportion with the rad supports (which are pushed in on one side), it's not pushed in.

i woulndnt drive the car anywhere. There is stuff touching or really close to ur header and if u dont want ur car going up in flames like that F250 (its a ford, what did you expect?), then dont drive it. Also, try partstrain. com. They're stuff is cheap. You could try to bend ur rad support back, that wont cost u a thing just pull it with one of ur atvs and a chain. Just be gentle.

i was rolling maybe 15 mph, i had already stopped in a long line at a red light and we started to go and i rolled prolly 30 feet when the line stopped for no reason and i wasnt looking so bump bump civic. if i would have hit bumper to bumper there probably wouldn't be hardly and damage. i didn't even feel much of a jolt it was a baby wreck but my hood and radiator support took the hit.
